How to set og:description
The preview card shows a title and an image with no supporting line, which reads as a bare link and converts worse than one that explains itself.
What 13x checks
This is rule social.og-description in the public registry: og:description is set. It runs on every audit, against the pages we actually fetched, and its result is derived from the response rather than estimated.
